Annika's Bio

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

I bought 2 pairs of these shorts 4 years ago and still have them and they're super excellent! But getting a little threadbare after all this time so when I saw that they still existed I bought another pair! However, the fabric has changed for the worse. It's really soft now which is nice except that after 10 minutes of wearing there was huge pilling between the legs which, now that I've had the shorts for about a month, has continued. All the pills stick together and rip out and the fabric is getting thinner and thinner. If I don't patch these babies they're not going to outlast the old ones. They may not even last the summer. Super bummed because the fit of these shorts is rad.

Every helmet I've had before this one (Giro bad Lieutenant and Bern Must) has been able to shift forward and back a bit on my head and it drove me crazy because no matter what I did I never felt like my helmet fit quite right and then this one popped up on Brociety this fall in the audio version. I thought what the heck, it looks good and if I don't like this any better I'll send it back so I pulled the trigger. For me, a person who apparently has a shortish head front to back, this helmet fits perfect. Super happy with it. Only thing is the earpads (I dunno about the regular ones, but the audio ones) don't seem to pop out. That's my one single quibble though.
